"Daughter, don't be impulsive..."
As Chu Xiulan was about to stop her, she was met with a sharp glare from Lin Langsheng.
Ye Longlin: "..."
The dignified Ye Tianwang, who had commanded battlefields, was momentarily stunned. He hadn't expected Lin Tian'ai to actually compromise.
And be willing to go with him to get the marriage certificate?
A father's command was hard to defy, and once on a tiger, it was hard to dismount. Ye Longlin was never indecisive.
It's just a marriage, who fears whom!
"Lead the way."
Seeing this, Lin Langsheng was overjoyed and quickly followed personally, fearing they might go back on their word.
Finally, with Lin Langsheng as a witness, Ye Longlin and Lin Tian'ai obtained their marriage certificate at the Civil Affairs Bureau.
The Purple Crystal Ring also returned to its rightful owner.
From this day on, they were a legally married couple!
A knowing smile appeared on Lin Langsheng's aged face.
He patted Ye Longlin on the shoulder and laughed heartily, "Alright, you two get along well. This is the key and property deed to Cloud Brocade Paradise. I've already had my assistant transfer it to your name. This is your and Tian'ai's marital home."
Then he turned to Lin Tian'ai, his smiling face instantly turning stern, "Lin Tian'ai, I'm telling you, live well with Longlin. If I find out you bully Longlin, you'll regret it."
After speaking, Lin Langsheng got into a white van and left.
Ye Longlin looked at the marriage certificate in his hand, his expression dazed.
He was married already??
It was all happening a bit too fast.
If the brats in Dragon Pavilion knew, they'd probably celebrate for three days and three nights.
Lin Tian'ai saw Ye Longlin's lips curl upwards and scoffed, "Didn't someone say they wanted to break off the engagement? Now that you're married to me, you must be overjoyed, right?"
"Ye Longlin, although we are married now, I will not fulfill my wifely responsibilities. Also, you should know that I am the CEO of Giant Spirit Group, while you are at best a mere prison guard. Once I've persuaded my father, I will divorce you immediately!"
"Of course, I will compensate you. Just name your price, and I'll give it to you. However, I hope you understand the gap between us."
After speaking, she took out the key to her Maserati President, got in the car, and gave Ye Longlin another arrogant look before stepping on the accelerator and speeding away.
At this moment, Yuan Gang opened the car door and walked over, snorting, "This woman is really arrogant. If it weren't for the prohibition, I'd really want to throw my officer's ID in her face."
Ye Longlin shot him an exasperated look and slapped the marriage certificate onto his chest, "Actually, she's not wrong. We've never been from the same world."
He would propose divorce after helping her resolve the predicament of Giant Spirit Group.
For now, this was simply repaying his father's favor.
"Zhang Xiao called, he's waiting for us at the villa on the lake island."
Ye Longlin nodded, got into the car, and Yuan Gang drove towards the location Zhang Xiao had sent.
The villa on the lake island was known as the king of kings among luxury homes. To reach it, one either had to take a small boat or a helicopter.
This was because the villa, as its name suggested, was situated right in the center of the lake!
This villa area was the top-tier luxury residential area in Star City, and even among the top nationwide!
"Mr. Ye."
Upon seeing Ye Longlin arrive, Zhang Xiao rushed to greet him, bending at the waist with a fawning smile.
The security guards at the entrance were stunned. To see Star City's richest man bow and scrape before someone, it was clear Ye Longlin was not to be trifled with.
Led by Zhang Xiao, the group went directly to the lakeside. Zhang Xiao, like a subordinate, welcomed Ye Longlin onto the helicopter heading to the lake island.
However, just as they were boarding the helicopter, on the rooftop of a villa closest to the lake, Mu Hanqi happened to see the backs of a group of people boarding a helicopter. Her beautiful brows furrowed.
"Doesn't that back look like Tian'ai's fiancé? That's unlikely. And isn't that Zhang Xiao next to him? Who has the status to have Star City's richest man personally greet them?"
After a moment's thought, she sent a video to her best friend.
"Tian'ai, do you know where your fiancé lives?"
To her surprise, Lin Tian'ai replied with a cold face, "It has nothing to do with me."
"Hey, it seems there's some gossip to be had?"
"My dear sister, come on, tell me your unhappiness and make me happy."
Then, Lin Tian'ai recounted what had happened today, and Mu Hanqi's jewel-like eyes widened in shock.
She rubbed her little face and exclaimed, "Oh my god, that was too decisive! They're married already??"
After hanging up the phone, she turned to look at the helicopter landing on the rooftop, her eyes narrowing slightly.
"Does Ye Longlin truly have some unspeakable identity? Tian'ai is still in the dark..."
"No, I can't let Tian'ai divorce him. I need to plan something carefully to make them love each other."
Lake Island Villa.
After disembarking the helicopter, Zhang Xiao, like a salesperson, introduced all the functions of the villa before standing in the living room.
"Alright, you can go about your business. I'll contact you if anything is needed."
Yuan Gang saw him still standing there and spoke up.
"Yes, Mr. Ye, Mr. Yuan. Please make yourselves comfortable. If you need anything, I am always available."
With that, he turned and left.
After he left, Yuan Gang chuckled, "Old Zhang is a good guy. It wasn't in vain that I looked after him when we were in prison."
Ye Longlin sat regally on the sofa, the laptop in front of him filled with reports from war criminals across the country.
Dragon Pavilion had dispersed throughout the country, reporting daily.
"What do the relevant departments say about the Xiaotian Group?"
"It's been investigated. Qin Xiao has been arrested for instigating murder, responsible for over sixty lives, many of whom were former rivals of the Xiaotian Group."
Ye Longlin let out a cold snort, "Prosecute him according to the law!"
"Yes!" Yuan Gang nodded.
Just then, Lin Langsheng's call suddenly came through.
"Longlin, there's a gathering this afternoon. Tian'ai is too shy to ask you to accompany her. Young people need to strengthen their relationship."
"Where are you now? Tian'ai said she'd drive to pick you up..."
